Here are two other fun popsicle recipes to try:
Ingredients Needed
Here’s what you will need:
- 3 Cups Fresh Watermelon, cubed
- 3/4 Cup Coconut Yogurt
- 4-5 Kiwis, cubed
- Popsicle Mold
- Popsicle Sticks
Note: to make it sweeter, you can add 1 tbsp of sugar to the watermelon and 1 tbsp to the kiwi. Or, you can add your favorite sweetener of choice.
Can I use another kind of yogurt?
Yes! You can use vanilla yogurt, Greek yogurt or plain yogurt. If you use plain yogurt you can also add a little bit of honey to sweeten it (honey should not be given to babies under 1 year old).
How many popsicles does this make?
For a standard popsicle size mold, we made 10 popsicles. If your mold has larger popsicles you may only be able to make 6-8.
How long does it take to freeze?
Each layer will take a minimum of 30 minutes to freeze before adding the next layer. We recommend 3 hours for the watermelon layer and one and half hours for the yogurt layer. Then leave in the freezer for 6 hours or overnight to harden completely.
